AD WARS! AirTran Responds to Southwest’s Commercial

Last week Southwest Airlines had a commercial poking fun that passenger’s bags don’t  fly for free on other airlines. The plane used in the ad was an AirTran Boeing 717 (even though the name was blurred out). Well, AirTran fights back with this funny (and creative) ad showing Southwest passengers as cattle and a little “yee-haw” action to boot.

Most people might have not realized that was an AirTran Boeing 717 used in the Southwest ad, but it is quite obvious that it is Southwest Airlines in the AirTran ad.

Man I love a good advertisement war. Southwest, it is your move :).
